MUNSTER AWARD FOR AOIFE O’SULLIVAN - At the Tower Hotel in Waterford last Saturday night, many of Munster’s finest and best athletes were rewarded by Munster Athletic Council for their performances in athletic track and field, cross country and road championships throughout 2019. Among those who received rewards was Liscarroll AC’s high jumper, Aoife O’Sullivan.

Aoife competed in up to 20 championship events during the year at juvenile, junior and senior level being successful in most of them. She was also involved at International level, competing in the European Juniors in Baku, Azergypan and competing in the Nation’s Cup and Celtic Games in Dublin. This was a great year for herself, for her father Martin (her coach) and her mother Siobhán (her no. One supporter). Well done and congratulations to all on a busy and successful year.

CROSS-COUNTRY - Five of our runners competed for their schools at the South Munster Schools Championships held last Thursday. Those, who took part were Isobel Kellegher (St Mary’s Mallow) who finished fifth out of 47 in the junior girls category.
